Social Justice Resources

Friends,

As we work together for a more just and equitable society, here is a list of resources to assist us in our work. Also, remember that we are reading The New Jim Crow over the summer and plan to have a book discussion this fall. Contact the church office for more information: takaya@stdavidssf.org.

Happy learning,
Fr Chris+

Thanks to Leslie Verner for compiling much of this list.

The LiturgistsEpisode 34--Black & White: Racism in America
(If you only have time to listen to one podcast from this list, I would recommend this one. It's nearly two hours, but it's so packed with insight that you'll want to listen again.)

Like Me, Like You Kids(A place to buy toys and decorative items for kids that reflect diversity. From the site: "Our hope is to curate beautiful products that allow children of color to see themselves in the art, books and toys they interact with daily. We also hope that children of all shades would grow up appreciating the gift of diversity - like me, like you.")

These voices--both white and people of color--are bravely speaking out about racism in our country. If you subscribe to their blogs, follow them on Twitter or "like" their pages on Facebook, then you'll be sure to always be kept abreast of the latest that is going on in the African American community.*=active on Twitter
